So weird seeing a place that you've been going to for 30 years. Friend who I brought a few times to this place passed away recently, so seeing the China Town small garden area gave me a great reminder of her. Thanks for this video.
Glad you’re okay and you lived to eat another day, like how you said ☺️
I love how Mikey always praises the state/city that hes in with their great food/culture! I Always have the utmost respect for Mikey!
I picture Mike having his chopsticks with him like that scene from Friends when Joey pulls out a fork to help eat the cheesecake on the floor. Lol

You have no clue the amount of amazing awesome Asian food we have in Atlanta. You could spend a week here and eat something amazing and different every day. Most of it is in the northern parts of Atlanta and it’s suburbs. I recently moved south and the food is so bad here south of Atlanta. I am planning to travel up to Chamblee next week just for lunch and a stock up trip to H-Mart. You are so funny with the Bojangles. I was dying laughing at you. For some reason I could not fathom that you would even notice the spice in their chicken. You looked so happy eating it though.
This looks like some real deal Chinese food. Reminds me of places by grandparents would take me as a kid.
Mikey Chen uploads starter pack 1. People who have not eaten anything 2. People who have just started eating 3. The early ones 4. The people finding Mikey 5. Some other idiots with random s**t 6. The best and most genuine person in all of this our host and food consumption god mikey chen...

You inspire me to work hard so I can explore the food world for myself. I appreciate every video, Mike! I even find myself rewatching your videos from over 3 years ago, and it still feels like something so new!

The sesame paste noodle is actually called 热干面 - hot dry noodle, originally from Wuhan, Hubei, China. :) I ate it all the time growing up.
Hope Mikey is enjoying Texas!! His food journey is just getting even better!

He goes to a restaurant: he eats. He goes home: he eats again. I could never 😲
I actually live near this place, and love to come here on sundays. There is a restaurant in the food court that is(used to be) only soups, and the house hand pulled noodle soup is soooo good. When I found out Mikey has actually been here, I knew he would love love the food. This asian food is some of the best in Georgia
4 am in Tehran and here we go again :D
"Aww I thought that was a whole strawberry..... now I'm kinda sad" Im glad im not the only one who gets sad at food sometimes lol
I've been watching a lot of Mike's videos and though I like them, lately I've suspected that...well his palate just isn't all that sophisticated despite all great looking places all around the world he gets to visit. Him gushing over Bojangles in this video nailed that for me. Guys, it's fast food chicken, it's not as delicious as he's letting on.
9:25 .. You hear the police siren in the background? Someone called the cops on Mikey for eating fried chicken with chopsticks.

I LOVE the hot oil Mike!!! I thought the cost is absolutely appropriate. I put it on almost every single dish i eat. It’s a life changer.
This entire trip was my childhood in NC and college years in Atlanta. Thank you for visiting and sharing.
Thanks for mentioning getting sleepy and what you do to overcome that. Great idea to stop often. I usually park as far away as possible from where I'm heading, just to force the walking. Then drench my hair and neck to help stay alert. Cheers.

Haven't checked his videos for a while, he is getting in shape. Look at those muscles!! Happy for you, Mike
Omg a North Carolina spot finally! I have to go tomorrow omg! Also very proud of our Bojangles and that is your favorite place!🥳🥳
u're living the dream man thanks for these videos much love
That fried seafood is the best thing I've ever seen from a food vlogger.
You should check out the Annandale / Falls Church Virginia over in the Northern VA area. Great Asian area and community with good foods. So many good options depending on the type of food you are in the market for.
It's Sunday, I have been watching your video and laughing at your comments on the food you ate. Love your personality, Mikey.
Thank you Mike for showing me such great places near me. Will be checking them out this weekend

I am so glad you went to the ATL Chinatown! One of the first places I went to when I moved there!
Thank you for covering Atlanta’s version of “Chinatown”. I’ve lived here most of my life and had no idea it existed until a couple of weeks ago when I was looking for hot pot restaurants in Atlanta. Not much information about it online. I guess it’s one of those word of mouth things. Can’t wait to check it out.
I'm glad you made it safely! Try to check out Jinya Ramen Bar as well!
lets gooo!! another food video to along with during my dinner time 💙
Yayyyy I recommended this place in one of the last videos and you went! Makes me so happy! You rock
So glad you're alright. That highway story sounds scary af.
Welcome to the triangle Mikey. Hope your enjoyed the time in the area.
Its not flooded because we have tons of great food spots so we're able to spread out more. Welcome to Atlanta. Glad you finally came. Hope you come again and explore more. The ATL has tons and tons to offer.
It's always surreal when Mikey passes by where I live and I don't know he was there until a few days later. Come back to NC sometime, it's a great place.

I was just looking for a ramen place but after watching, I feel like I need to try a lot instead of ramen. Thank you, Mike. Always putting up high quality content.
So nice to see a video from my city (Atlanta)!
OMG so glad you're safe. That episode on highway sounds so scary.
Even when I'm stuffed full, when I watch Mikey food video I want to eat some more.
Loved Chinatown! Thanks for making it a must on our vaca!
How could you not have a good time getting down on some Chinese food with Mikey!
. Mike has quite the iron stomach, ive never seen someone eat a FULL family meal. I envy you Mike...
Mikey I’m glad you made it back safe. And I love the freshness of the food in North Carolina but my seafood allergy doesn’t.
So delicious, definitely a must try
